Waiting

Habakkuk 1:1-5

¹ The oracle that Habakkuk the prophet saw. ² LORD, how long will I call for help and you not listen? I cry out to you, “Violence!” but you don’t deliver us. ³ Why do you show me injustice and look at anguish so that devastation and violence are before me? There is strife, and conflict abounds. ⁴ The Instruction is ineffective. Justice does not endure because the wicked surround the righteous. Justice becomes warped. ⁵ Look among the nations and watch! Be astonished and stare because something is happening in your days that you wouldn’t believe even if told.
